“Luxurious but slightly lacking”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

We stayed here last weekend and met up with friends.The hotel grounds look beautiful and the gardens were very attractive.The public rooms are all gorgeous-wood panelling,log fires and board games. Our standard room was extremely small and rather bland-so we negotiated an upgrade to the Tower Suite which was splendid.The double bathroom was beautiful and the four poster bed was really what you would expect in such a lovely hotel.The spa was smart but so busy that we were unable to all 4 of us find loungers by the pool( but the staff said it was not usually this busy).My husband had a sports massage which he said really was fantastic.
We were all a little disappointed in the slightly patchy service over dinner-some long gaps waiting for little things such as tea at the end of our meal and on several occasions we all had empty glasses and had to pour our own wine-hardly a hardship but not really what you expect from a top class hotel.The food was good quality but a litle lacking the wow factor. The cheese board however was fantastic- a very wide selection of well thought out local and regional cheese and avery good portion of each was served.
Our main gripe was the charge for tea which was frequently offered - on arrival,as a wake uo and in the lounge after breakfast. The charge of £6 per cup seems exceptionally steep particularly when there is no facility in the room to make a cup of tea and when they are charging £330 for a tiny room with no breakfast it was generally felt that tea should be complimentary. To make matters worse we spotted on our bill after paying that they'd charged us for an extra 3 cups (£24) which we hadn't had. It was refunded but it took time a nd left a slight sourness on our part. I would go back but only after I'd exhausted other hotels in what is a lovely part of the country.

Room Tip: Would recommend the suites as standard rooms are really pokey.

“Superb”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

We are lucky enough to stay in the best hotels in the world and this is in our top 10. Fabulous service great food, ideal for a weekend spa retreat.

Although the dress code has been relaxed please respect other guests by at least being smart. Poorly dressed people spoil the ambience.

“Five Star Plus”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

people found this review helpful

After years of nearly staying here we did in July, the weekend exceeded our expectations and really does define what you should expect from a luxury hotel. The drive up to the hotel has to be one of the most amazing entrances anywhere in world. Our journey was a nightmare (english motorway's) but that was completely forgotten the minute we entered the gates. The reception was welcoming and friendly and the room was great with some excellent touches.

I didnt try the spa but husband and friends did and it was truly superb. I opted to horse riding around the estate and despite the rain have a throughly enjoyable time on a great horse.

Food was great both nights, one in the main restaurant the other in the one next to the spa.

Can not recommend the hotel enough, and can't wait to go back.

“Country escapism”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We stayed 1 night in October 2011 and were concerned that with only 1 night we it wouldn't feel like a proper break. Very pleased to say we were wrong.

The spa was just heaven. The room was fab, they've managed to get country estate right, it feels premium, many similar places we've stayed at feel tired, not the case here.

The restaurant was just amazing, they were one of the most accommodating kitchens for Claire's wheat/gluten intolerance, nothing was too much trouble even the canapes were adjusted to suit.

I often begrudge spending a lot of money for mediocre in the UK (especially when we see how well other places can do service) Lucknam is expensive, but it is definitely worth it.

“Outstanding Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Booked this as a treat for my friends up and coming wedding, so a luxury spa treat.
What a hotel, if you want British First class this is the place to come. Having stayed in many hotels this is in a class of its own. I cannot recommend it highly enough I will go back one day and take my Husband this time.

Used the restaurant, who bent over backwards to come up with different vegetarian meals for the duration of our stay. I would recommend to them to include more on their menu in the way of vegetarian dishes. There is a lovely lounge in the house you can sit afterwards for a drink and to relax.

The spa was great very relaxing and a treat for those who stay till its dark, when something happens at the pool.

Close to bath, but we spent most of our time at the hotel.
